the president's problem was he didn't come with a strong narrative frame, both for defending his own accomplishments and own record, give us an idea of where we're going in the next term and holding mitt romney accountable for having 87 positions on every issue. yes, it gets repetitive but if you continue to frame the issue, you know, in a more elegant way, which we know the president's capable of, you can remind the audience over and over because mitt romney has flip-flopped over and over. so, i hope we see not only -- and the president can remain polite. i just hope we see a more aggressive defense and a better frame, a better narrative about who he is, what he's done and where we're going as a country. >> let's start with the negative. let's play defense here. what about going after this 47%, when romney was being taped, not on national television, but when he thought he wasn't on national television, when he basically dismissed half the country for being slackers, moochers, whatever, loafers. when he did that, that wasn't something he was saying by accident. that is something, se

you ma i see both of those things when mitt romney gets out here in just a few moment from now. the romney campaign is pretty pleased with what the american people saw at that presidential debate last week. they saw mitt romney going toe to toe with president obama and so now is another chance they think for the american people to say mitt romney filling out the role as commander in chief and laying out his foreign policy principles and then after the speech is over he will be meeting in a round table with a group of retired generals. again, another one of those images that the campaign would like to put out there of mitt romney as commander in chief. just to talk a little about what you and wolf were talking about a few moments ago, you go into the excerpts and you can take away a few different things. i was listening to a call yesterday and you just mentioned the situation in syria and they were talking about this idea of providing arms to the rebels in syria as an idea that would appeal to the left as to people who look at this from a humanitarian standpoint, and so it was in

so i would say to both president obama and governor romney, remember the camera is on your face and, you know, regardless of what the question may be, do not look impatient, do not smirk, do not sigh, do not laugh and remember the questioner's name. you know, not only do you have to connect with each other, connect with the audience at home but connect with the audience in that room and the folks asking the questions. >> the poll numbers we're seeing really demonstrate it is a close race and that the stakes are really big and i think that, you know, we say this a lot but i think the next eight days in this race will really be, you know, the most important eight days with the debate, tuesday night and then the next -- the final debate, the proceeding week, i mean i think we're in a period now where the next president is going to be decided and it does seem to be very close in statistical dead heat. so ana, we asked you about taxes, right? will we get any more details from mitt romney on taxes? you said no and congressman ryan has actually asserted that, in fact, we will not get any mo

both president obama and mr. romney recognize the threat that iran poses the issue is where do you go from there. finance your priority. how do you deal with it? it's no good to say what president george w. bush may or may not have done for eight years ago, seven years ago, six years ago that is not a prescription for the future. you keep looking back you will get. the real issue is how do you get to the iranians to stop in richmond. if you wait until they are on the way or six weeks away and then say i'm going to rely on our intelligence doesn't allow us to take out who are the good guys and the bad guys and syria. our intelligence doesn't tell us what will but we ignore the intelligence. so even if we get the intelligence that doesn't mean we are not going to pay attention to it. how far do you want to risk that? mr. romney is saying i don't want to take that kind of risk. i share with the president the concern about iran getting a nuclear weapon, but i'm going to go back to preventing that in a very different
